Style Summary

These style showcase a Gothic and surreal artistic style, blending ruined architecture, puppetry, fantastical creatures, and suspenseful scenes. A mysterious, eerie, and slightly thrilling atmosphere permeates the overall imagery. Deep tones, slightly rough brushstrokes, and strong contrasts of light and shadow create a dramatic visual effect, prompting viewers to contemplate the story's background and the characters' fates.

Style Analysis

Color:
This style primarily utilize desaturated colors like deep green, dark yellow, and brown, creating an antique, aged, and oppressive ambiance. Bright contrasting colors are interspersed in some scenes, such as the bright green and deep red in the puppet show scene and the bright green and black in the underwater scene. This contrast enhances the dramatic effect and visual impact of This style.
Lighting:
The use of light is highly dramatic, often appearing as localized strong light and shadow, creating a sense of mystery and tension. For instance, the light in the ruined corridor shines from afar, forming a distinct contrast between light and dark; the light in the puppet show scene focuses on the puppet and the little girl, highlighting their figures; the light in the underwater scene is softer but still emphasizes the contours of the fantastical creature through light and shadow contrast.
Design Technique:
These images adopt a drawing style similar to comics or picture books, with bold lines, strong color contrasts, exaggerated character designs, and symbolic scene settings. For example, the ruined architecture symbolizes decay and oblivion, the puppet show symbolizes manipulation and fate, and the fantastical creature symbolizes the unknown and fear. The combination of these elements creates a visual world full of suspense and imagination.

Application Scenarios

More Tips


You can explore further by combining the following command:

  • --sv: There are six versions of the Style Reference feature in Midjourney version 7 when using images. Use the --sv parameter to choose between them. --sv 6 is default. --sv 4 is the old V7 sref model (prior to June 16, 2025). Using --sv 6 and --sv 4 may produce different style results.
  • --s: Default value is 100, can be set from 0 to 1000. The higher the value, the more detailed the image, and the closer the style may be to reality.
  • -niji 6: Using this command will give the image a more anime style.
  • --sw: Default value is 100, can be input from 0 to 1000. A higher value makes the style closer to the original.
  • You can now blend multiple --sref codes together (for example --sref 123 456 )
